I am planning on going to either Rousch Creek or AOAA on Nov 22nd. I'd prefer Rousch Creek but they require groups of at least 2. AOAA only recommends 2. Going alone means I'll have to forgo the more challenging trails (anything that remotely looks like I'd get stuck). If anyone is interested...
The issue I was having is that the driver's side rear window would not automatically go down the inch or so it is supposed to. The way I found this out was a passenger got into the back seat. I had to back out of a parking spot. When I looked in the driver's side mirror, I could see a gap...
I can't imagine a dealer getting no allocations. Maybe if you were the only order but I'm sure there were others in the Tunkhannock area. Sounds a little fishy.
Before I was in my Bronco I was in a car with heated seats and just the ass got hot, not the lower back. I prayed the Bronco went up the lower back and lo and behold it does!
For the minor issues I've experienced with a FOAK, I am extremely happy with the Bronco!
Went for a ride on some dirt roads, nothing challenging, just fun. Had the Badlands doing about 50 when I spotted a decent size puddle (about 30 feet long, 6 to 10 inches deep, full width of the track). I let up on the gas for a sec then said said F'it and hammered down. It was like I was 5...
I second the no regrets! I drive it every chance I get. The wife is getting annoyed we can't ride anywhere in her Explorer anymore lol! Picked mine up July 11th, just had my 7,500 mile service.
They fit very well! I was a little concerned the "spikes" on the back might damage the floor but I've been checking it daily for signs of indentation but nothing so far.
Wheels and Tires
I'm guessing the MTs are going to wear out pretty quick. I'm thinking of going with a larger rim and BF Goodrich KO2s while trying to maintain 35".

Then I'll use the 17" wheels with an aggressive mud tire.
Thoughts?
Lighting
Probably the next item I buy will be lighting. Been looking at the Baja Designs XL-80 for the A-Pilars:
